  1. Results are great. Just enough fill not to look like a family/comedy movie. What lighting setup did you use in the end?
  2. I'm really sorry I'm wasting you time with this question but I had today some disscutions with a teacher about the name of a shot size. If I have a bottle or a can (not a human being) that fills the whole frame, how is this called? Closeup or Full Shot? Thanks!
  3. If you buy the spot one, you can always use a diffusion in front of it to spread the light...but from the other one, you can never get more light even in a smaller beam angle.
  4. Thank you very much for your time!
  5. Thanks for answers, but Im not talking about 5d or any other camera (anyway, Id never use a hacked camera for a paid job). There are a lot of cameras out there for rent. But the true rec709 has 5-6 stops of dr. Is there any simmilar standard for HDR? (Eg. 12 stops-so you need a 12+ camera for a good result)
  6. Thank you very much for answers! So, what I already shoot on a Red (not in HDRx mode), is going to be good enough for a HDR grading in future? I suppose some old footage from a 5d (probably 9-10 stops) will not be use for a HDR delivery, isnt?
  7. How many DR stops are enough for a HDR delivery format? For rec709, you can use even a 7stops dr camera and its fine, but Im very confused about HDR standards...1000nits, 10000nits, Dolby PQ, BBC. 10stops? 15stops? A camera like C300 with 12stops will be still usable? Lets say, I want to buy a HDR display (the new atomos, or any other)...if the imagine looks good on a 1000nits display, is gonna look good on a 3000nits display? Am I totally wrong? This new HDR scares me a lot! There is very few information about this new standard out there and if anyone could explain, I think is gonna be very useful for many of us. Thank you!
  8. Full spot for that fresnel fixture is not the same beam angle (and diameter) as full spot on open face, so to fill the same surface with a fresnel as with an open face you'll have to increase the angle on T2, and so you will get less light.
  9. You have to check the beam angle. At 2K, set at spot, the fresnel has more output than openface but it doesnt fill the same surface of diffusion. And if you change the beam angle to get the same beam diameter as the open face unit, you will get less output.
  10. I think at 1:32. With chrome it goes directly at this point
  11. It's just a speculation but could be some small daylight unit through roof...big light loss from that gap to the blanket on the bed (left corner). Soft warm as key on her face, maybe a chimera and also a small daylight unit to the right of the frame to get some blueish highlights (and the shadow from the headset) on her arm and her cheek. Looking forward for other opinion.
  12. I used mostly at 3200k, veeery soft source, 2700-6500K range is realy awesome buuut...I don't want to be subjective. You can see here exactly how it looks like: at 3:36
  13. Thanks for answer! If I want to match bmc to arri, that is exactly what I should do, but to match bmc to random consmer camera that doesnt help... There has to be a way to use the color checker as reference to match different cameras but not color correct the footage from one of them.
  14. Let's say I have two shots. One shot with a phone, or a consumer camera, and the other one shot on Red, Arri, etc. Is there any way to automatically match the good one to the bad one, with or without a color checker? I know I can do it by hand and I know I can color correct both using the color checker to match, but I just want to make Red look like iphone (in terms of color and contrast of course) without color correcting iphone footage. Thank you!
